ref. 5361Denver: Henrietta Bromwell. Original Painting. Oil on Canvas Framed. Painting Fine within a Very Good Ornate Frame. Original oil painting framed depicting a disused pioneer cabin amid a forest clearing blue sky and pink clouds overhead. Exposed painting measures 9.75 x 8 inches; frame measures 14 x 11 inches. Bromwell neglected to sign and date many of her paintings; this work is signed "H. E. Bromwell" and features the "July 25 192unintelligible". On the back of the period frame is the remnant of a store label for Chain & Hardy Book Stationery and Art Co. Denver with only the address 1609-1615 Arapahoe St. and "Art Department" remaining. The painting is in Fine condition with three small chips to the gilded Victorian frame please see photos. Born in Illinois in 1870 Henrietta Elizabeth Bromwell 1859-1946 moved to the Colorado Territory when her father Henry Pelham Holmes Bromwell joined the territorial legislature. She studied art at the University of Denver and with Anne Evans daughter of John Evans Colorado's second territorial governor founded the Denver Artists Club also known as the Artists' Club of Denver. By 1923 that organization evolved into the Denver Art Museum. The subject of the painting is typical of Bromwell's oeuvre utilizing mountain streams rustic settings and pioneer life as her subjects. In an 1899 article Bromwell credited Monet as influencing her landscape painting as the lighter color palette and loose brushstrokes attest. Critics have suggested the influence of Henry Durrie and Jasper Francis Cropsey. Interest in Bromwell fluctuates with articles appearing periodically. In 1997 an issue of Colorado Heritage featured just that with the cover boasting a Bromwell painting akin to this offering. . Henrietta Bromwell unknown

1800ref. 52601Canada 1800. Graphite pen-and-ink and grey wash on wove paper watermarked "W. Elgar 1796". 13 5/8 x 20 inches. Corners clipped outside the image verso toned. Graphite pen-and-ink and grey wash on wove paper watermarked "W. Elgar 1796". 13 5/8 x 20 inches. Along the falls of a tree-lined river two First Nations men are pulling a canoe into the water directed by another in an elaborate feather headdress; a wigwam with mother and child is on the same shore to their left; across the river a longhouse and structure for smoking fish with another group of native people can be seen; at the far left a First Nations man is standing in his canoe fishing with a pole in the water just below the rapids. Although the 1796 watermark on the paper is consistent with drawings by Heriot the unfinished quality of this work make attribution difficult. However it is somewhat reminiscent of a smaller grisaille watercolor signed by Heriot titled FALLS OF THE POQUISQUE ON THE RIVER ST JOHN on verso sold at Waddington's March 15 2018 lot 137. Furthermore this scene is reminiscent of one described by Heriot in his Travels in the Canadas 1807 in which he describes Native American fishing on the cacasdes of St. Mary nine miles below the entrance to Lake Superior: "It is at the bottom of the rapids and even among their billows which foam with ceaseless impetuosity that innumerable quantities of excellent fish may be taken from the spring until the winter; the species which is found in the greatest abundance is denominated by the savages atticameg or white fish; the Michilimakinac trout and pickerell are likewise caught here. These aflford a principal means of subsistence to a number of native tribes. No small degree of address as well as strength is employed by the savages in catching these fish; they stand in an erect attitude in a birch canoe and even amid the billows they push with force to the bottom of the waters a long pole at the end of which is fixed a hoop with a net in the form of a bag into which the fish is constrained to enter. They watch it with the eye when it glides among the rocks quickly ensnare it and drag it into the canoe. In conducting this mode of fishing much practice is required as an inexperienced person may by the efforts which he is obliged to make overset the canoe and inevitably perish." Trained by Paul Sandby at the Royal Military Academy Woolwich London Heriot worked as a clerk for Board of Ordnance. "In 1792 Heriot was posted to Quebec and promoted clerk of the cheque in the Ordnance department. Heriot was to remain in Lower Canada until 1816 except apparently for two periods of absence in 1796-97 and in 1806. His first years at Quebec are not well documented. Sketches record visits in and about Quebec and Montreal perhaps on Ordnance business. In November 1792 he published a sketch of Jersey in the Quebec Magazine and the following year he prepared a view of Quebec perhaps also intended for publication. When he returned to Britain in 1796 he resided in London travelled to the south coast and made at least one sketching foray into Wales . A watercolour prepared from his sketches of Wales and two Canadian views were accepted by the Royal Academy of Arts for exhibition in the spring. Heriot probably sailed for Lower Canada soon afterwards taking notes and making sketches on the voyage. The impact of his visit to Britain was considerable. While there he had been stimulated by the art he had seen and by his success as an artist. He returned with a fresh enthusiasm for the Canadas; he began to read about their past and to make elaborate notes and numerous sketches of the places he visited and the peoples he encountered. His sojourn abroad had affected his artistic vision of the Canadas; his drawings and water-colours assumed a new confidence and his landscape forms developed a new strength and grandeur. In London he had probably studied the simply handled and remarkably strong water-colours of younger British artists such as Thomas Girtin Joseph Mallord William Turner and John Varley. Either in Britain or in Lower Canada he had also become familiar with Lieutenant George Bulteel Fisher's Six views of North America . London 1796.

2018br. Da sempre simbolo di ricchezza, bellezza, divinità, potere. Ma anche di risparmio e di scambio. Chi lo possiede lo conserva al sicuro in scrigni, casseforti, forzieri e caveaux. Perché? L'oro è un mistero che resiste da seimila anni. Oggi, nell'era del denaro di carta e del denaro virtuale, l'oro dovrebbe apparirci anacronistico. Eppure non è dimenticato affatto da chi cerca un porto sicuro per i propri risparmi. A cominciare dagli Stati e dalle banche centrali, l'oro resta il bene-rifugio per eccellenza, perno delle economie e dei sistemi monetari.

2011In-4 (cm. 27.90), brossura illustrata, con alette, pp. 263, (1), con illustrazioni soprattutto a colori nel testo. In ottimo stato (nice copy). Poche corti possono eguagliare in sfarzo e ricchezza quella dei Visconti e degli Sforza tra XIV e XV secolo. Le spiccate esigenze di lusso e fasto della signoria milanese, infatti - analoghe a quelle delle principali casate d'Europa come Francia, Borgogna, Inghilterra, Baviera -, resero necessaria la produzione di oggetti preziosi, sia destinati alla vita di corte sia a quella del culto. Con virtuosismi tecnici ineguagliabili e grande maestria gli orefici milanesi realizzarono oggetti dalla straordinaria bellezza, che spiccano ancora in particolare per l'uso sapiente delle tecniche smaltarie. Una tradizione artigiana che ha radici antichissime, e che ha portato alla creazione di ornamenti personali, vasellame da tavola, altaroli per la devozione privata, reliquiari, calici e tabernacoli, ma anche carte da gioco, come i celeberrimi "tarocchi viscontei": oggetti che divennero veri e propri status symbol, segno tangibile di sfarzo e potere. Il volume ripercorre questa straordinaria stagione, presentando sessanta pezzi di altissima qualità prodotti dalle botteghe artigiane di Milano, dalla seconda metà del Trecento quando emerge, tra le personalità al servizio dei Visconti quella del miniatore Giovannino De Grassi - fino alla fine del Quattrocento, quando lavora Caradosso Foppa, orefice di fiducia di Ludovico il Moro, ampiamente elogiato tra gli altri da Benvenuto Cellini. Testi di: Michela Barbot, Paolo Bensi, Paolo Biscottini, Anna Melograni, Lucia Miazzo..
